So, I purchased an after-market EPA-compliant 6-gallon tank.
Since it vents "in" but "out", when it gets really hot outside
the tank swells up (a lot!). As a result, the pick up tube
comes off the bottom to the point where it sucks air when
there is still a gallon (or more) of fuel in the tank. Obviously,
this is not a good situation. Anybody got a solution?
Even if you open the cap, it takes a long time for the swelling
to go back down.
